Data Access

The raw data can be explored interactively with the Table Browser, or the Data Integrator. For automated analysis, the data may be queried from our REST API, and the genome annotations are stored in files that can be downloaded from our download server, subject +href="https://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/gbdb/$db/gnomAD/v4.1.1/" target="_blank">download server, subject to the conditions set forth by the gnomAD consortium (see below).

The underlying bigBed only contains enough information necessary to use the track in the browser. The extra data like VEP annotations and CADD scores are available in the -same directory +same directory as the bigBed but in the files details.tab.gz and details.tab.gz.gzi. The details.tab.gz contains the gzip compressed extra data in JSON format, and the .gzi file is available to speed searching of this data. Each variant has an associated md5sum in the name field of the bigBed which can be used along with the _dataOffset and _dataLen fields to get the associated external data. For example:

 # find an item of interest, the last two fields are _dataOffset and _dataLen:
 bigBedToBed genomes.bb stdout | head -4 | tail -1

 # use _dataOffset and _dataLen (add one to _dataLen for the newline character):
-bgzip -b 67293 -s 903 gnomad.v4.1.genomes.details.tab.gz
